In general we are using the hyphen only for lower-middle or upper-middle. I don't think I have seen high"-"income or low"-"income or lower-middle"-"income much.

This is currently how we name income groups:
For consistency, those are the names we should use. We could consider changing them (but it would be a significant refactor, similar to the one of East Timor).

The assignment of (WB) seems inconsistent between the WB income groups: Low-income countries has it, but not High income or Upper-middle or Lower-middle income

Good catch! By the way, I'm assuming that their income groups are consistent (and up-to-date) in all World Bank datasets (and hence consistent with OWID), let me know if that's not a good assumption.

I assume that as well, but it will depend on when that dataset was released. If it's sufficiently old it can have a previous definition of income groups. I see they change every year.

Now that you say it, it should be that groups are dynamically changing per year, so that would be consistent. I don't know that with 100% certainty.

If they assume a definition of income groups that changes over the years, then those income groups are inconsistent with ours. Because we assume the current definition of income groups. But for this dataset (with just a few years of data) I suppose it should not matter much.

Right, I wasn't sure about that. I would assume theirs is dynamic, but I don't know
